ACTOPOLIS cover

All over the world, the cities of today are facing many challenges. How is it possible to expand and preserve urban space as a common area of society even in times of economic exploitation and privatisation? What is the role of art, culture, architecture, self-organised action and activism in these processes? Over the past few years, artists, architects, philosophers, urbanists, and activists have been tackling these questions in seven different European cities: Ankara/Mardin, Athens, Belgrade, Bucharest, Oberhausen, Sarajevo and Zagreb. Their work is contained within the framework of the international project ACTOPOLIS: The Art of Action. ACTOPOLIS is a call to action, and for communities to co-author their cities across disciplines, national boundaries, and cultural differences. Text in English and German.
